处女作,恳请NN赐教

Do you agree/disagree……sometimes it is better to not tell the truth.

Since young, teachers and parents have told us that honesty is a virtue of human beings. From generation to generation, this principle never changes. However, some people may argue that it is better to not tell the truth sometimes. Is it true? I take leave to doubt. In my view, telling the truth should always be the fundamental of our behavior even the result may be cruel.

 

First of all, we should tell the truth because it is the base of confidence between individuals especially friends. Can you tolerate a friend always tells lies to you? Will you trust him or her any more? Even he or she is unconscious, lies will certainly impair your relationship. The closer people are, the more important telling truth is. Take my friend Ann as an example. She and her boyfriend Mike was a sweet couple everyone envies. One night, however, Mike went to a birthday party of his old friend John. He did not want Ann to worry about him, so he told Ann he was working at office. Afraid that Mike will be hunger when busy with work, Ann brought dinner to his office but only to find that no one was there at all! You can guess what happened next, they broke up! It is not merely a problem about a party or a dinner; it matters trustiness! This case is not rare, in reality, frequently many relationships are ruined only because of not telling a truth, no matter how small the fair is.

 

The above is but one of many aspects, on the other hand, not telling truth may even lead to disaster. Honesty can help problems solved at an earlier stage. Not telling truth may escape from problems for some time, nevertheless, truth is truth and sooner or later it will be exposed to all, and at that time it may be too late to repair the damage. A case in point is what happened to a Japanese accountant. Years ago, the accountant withdrew a small amount of money of his company for personal use. When he found he could not afford to pay back the money, instead of telling the truth and receiving punishment of the company, the accountant cheated on the account. Later, along with his promotion, the original small mistake grew bigger and bigger like a snow ball until it turned out to be a millions and billions of dollars hole, which he could not conceal any longer! Surely, he was sent to the prison eventually. This may be an extreme example but it is a convincing evidence of the importance of telling truth.

 

Some one may argue that, under some specific situation, we need "white lies". For instance, it might be too cruel to tell a patient that he or she suffers cancer. However, no one can deny that, as long as the patient wants to be cured, he or she has to face the truth sooner or later. We can not lie but pick a right time to tell the truth and help him or her take over the difficulty bravely.

 

In a word, honesty is a cherished merit of our human beings and we should never abandon it. Sometimes, doing so may hurt some one so that we should choose a proper and gentle way to minimize the negative impact.

You did a good job!

If I were you, I would write like this.

"Some one Someone may argue that, under some specific situations, we need to tell "white lies". For instance, it might be too cruel to tell a patient that he or she suffers got cancer. However, no one can deny that, as long as the patient wants to be cured, he or she has to face the truth sooner or later. It would be wiser to pick a right time to tell the truth insteading of concealing it, thus aiding in conquering the dealth. We can not lie but pick a right time to tell the truth and help him or her take over the difficulty bravely.

Everyone is welcome to post your comments.

Since young, teachers and parents have told us that honesty is a virtue of human beings. From generation to generation, this principle never changes. However, some people may argue that it is better to not(应该是not to) tell the truth sometimes. Is it true? I take leave to doubt(不错,新概念4的句子). In my view, telling the truth should always be the fundamental of our behavior even the result may be cruel.

 

First of all, we should tell the truth because it is the base of confidence between individuals especially friends. Can you tolerate a friend always(always程度似乎深了点) tells lies to you? Will you trust him or her any more? Even he or she(s/he) is unconscious, lies will certainly impair your relationship(it will, inevitably, leave a crack in your relationship and make it no more intact. And the trust in you and your friend will be alleviated every time s/he lies. At last, a strong friendship might be devastated merely because of telling lies.). The closer people are, the more important telling truth is. Take my friend Ann as an example. She and her boyfriend Mike was a sweet couple everyone envies. One night, however, Mike went to a birthday party of his old friend John. He did not want Ann to worry about him, so he told Ann he was working at office. Afraid that Mike will be hunger when busy with work, Ann brought dinner to his office but only to find that no one was there at all! You can guess what happened next, they broke up! It is not merely a problem about a party or a dinner; it matters trustiness! This case is not rare, in reality, frequently many relationships are ruined only because of not telling a truth, no matter how small the fair is. (不错,有实际例子支撑)

 

The above is but one of many aspects, on the other hand, not telling truth may even lead to disaster. Honesty can help problems solved at an earlier stage. Not telling truth may escape from problems for some time. Nevertheless, truth is truth and sooner or later it will be exposed to all(truth will not be concealed forever and just for ever-sooner or later, truth will float up and all the people can see it.), and at that time it may be too late to repair the damage. A case in point is what happened to a Japanese accountant. Years ago, the accountant withdrew a small amount of money of his company for personal use. When he found he could not afford to pay back the money, instead of telling the truth and receiving punishment of the company, the accountant cheated on the account. Later, along with his promotion, the original small mistake grew bigger and bigger like a snow ball until it turned out to be a millions and billions of dollars hole, which he could not conceal any longer! Surely, he was sent to the prison eventually. This may be an extreme example but it is a convincing evidence of the importance of telling truth.(如果时间允许,你可以这样well develop 2个论点.我看了下,你一共写了500余词,真实的考试可能写不到如此之多.所以,我建议一个点well develop,另外一个可以稍微水一点)

 

Some one may argue that, under some specific situation, we need "white lies". For instance, it might be too cruel to tell a patient that he or she suffers cancer. However, no one can deny that, as long as the patient wants to be cured, he or she has to face the truth sooner or later. We can not lie but pick a right time to tell the truth and help him or her take over the difficulty bravely.

 

In a word, honesty is a cherished merit of our human beings and we should never abandon it. Sometimes, doing so may hurt some one so that we should choose a proper and gentle way to minimize the negative impact.

(整体很不错,很好的做到了实例支撑,而没有沉迷于抽象的论述.不过练习写作,最好还是限制时间来练习.如果你能在30分钟内写出这样的水平,那就很有可能得29,30.)
